Labels

Hey ya'll. A little bit of administration... Here are the labels to use.

Anyone can make labels...so make some funny ones from time to time...but for "serious business"...if that is what we call it :)...let's stick to these labels. That way we can go back and search through millions of future posts.

1. Writing Tips (obvious)
2. The Life and Times of Cubeland (Going to be gone? Want us to feed your fish?)
3. Project Strife Anonymous (Park your venting here.)
4. HELP! (Have a question? Need some help on a tight deadline?)
5. Just for Fun (most important category)

See ya!

Grammar Girl's Podcast

Happy Monday Writers!
Here is the link that was brought up in the writer's meeting. I have listened to a few of them...and think they are really helpful. Also, her search tab is very easy to use...so next time you are stumbled on the difference of IE and EG (for example)...check this out!

Hello cube mates!

I am merely doing this as a test to see if I'm clicking on the right things.........

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Let the Blogging Begin

Hello fellow writers... :)

I have set up this blog for us to share tips, respectfully vent about projects, and just chat about all things writing. (Thanks Beckie for the link!)

Let's set just a few ground rules...I will start, and then if you have anything to add/change/delete...we can go from there!

  • Anyone of us can make a post anytime.
  • Remember that the six of us are NOT the only one's who can see this...so just keep that in mind :)
  • Use this space as if you are sending an "All Writers Email" combined with a "Community Bulletin Board"
  • When you make a post...label it. Labels could be "Quick Writing Tip," "Can I Get this Off my Chest?," "A Topic to Discuss in the Next Writer's Meeting," etc. If we can get a consistent set of 10 labels, it will be easy for us to go back and search through the posts in a logical manner. (Ideas for the Label Names would be great.)
  • When another writer makes a post, respond to it with comments. Remember, if you don't have anything nice to say..........
  • Make a routine of checking in to the ABG Writer's Block daily. Let's make this our place to collaborate and have fun! (Occasional funny posts would be awesome!)

Let the blogging begin!
